   HI Everyone,  
I'm a newbe and am considering purchasing a 171.  My real 'apprehension' to the purchase is whether my 2010 4 runner (sr 4 wheel drive) is up to the towing task.  Toyota puts a tongue weight limit at 242...and its rated at a 5000# capacity (though I would not dream of towing that much).  the reason for the choice of t he 171 is that it is the lightest of the rpods...which I like.  
Also,  the dealer i am working with swears that this unit does not need a distribution hitch and will install sway control...any thoughts on this would much appreciated....

Thanks in advance for your informed input...
